Description
Castrol Optigear Synthetic™ CT 320 is a high performance synthetic polyalphaolefin (PAO) gear oil developed to provide superior performance under extreme operating conditions. It is specifically formulated to reduce wear and micropitting in wind turbine gearboxes.
This formulation has been developed to deliver high performance in extreme conditions, where water ingress is a risk. Optigear Synthetic CT 320 is approved by numerous leading wind turbine manufacturers.
Application
Optigear Synthetic CT 320 is specifically designed for use in wind turbine gear boxes. For any product recommendations, please consult your local Castrol Technical Engineer.
Advantages
Optigear Synthetic CT 320 is formulated with Castrol’s Microflux Trans (MFT) Plastic Deformation (PD) additive. The MFT PD additive technology provides optimum wear protection and an ultra-low coefficient of friction. Under severe load, the MFT PD additive is activated and creates a micro-smoothing effect on the surface. This unique technology provides many benefits including:
Excellent protection of gears against micropitting
Enhanced bearing protection, with FAG FE-8 step 4 pass and FVA 54 (scuffing) GFV >12
Extended oil change intervals
Reduced friction and wear
Reduced operational temperature
Increased energy efficiency
Excellent thermal and oxidative stability
Good water separation and hydrolysis stability
Good corrosion protection
Good filterability
Shear stable, with no loss of viscosity
